On this episode of The Prism, Clay and Grant sit down and have a chat with Myles Power.

Myles Power runs the educational YouTube channel powerm1985. He is originally from a small town in the North East of England called Middlesbrough, but has spent a large potion of his adult life living in Manchester. He is a chemist by trade who is is currently working in industry, but what little free time he has he spends sharing his love of science through home experiments, visiting sites of scientific interest, and angry rants at pseudoscience proponents. He has many years of experience working in a research lab, which has given him the skills he needs to research and debunk various psuedoscience theories. Some of the theories he has discussed on his YouTube channel includes AIDS denialists, 911 truthers, the anti-vaccination movement and homeopathy to name a few. He also is one of the founding members of the podcast The League of Nerds, which he co-hosts with James Gurney.
